Within Atrium Health, we use survey results to better understand what is important to our patients and how we can improve healthcare experiences. The overall Patient Rating score comes from the questions on our Medallia Patient Experience Survey. Responses are measured on a scale, where 0 represents "very poor" and 10 represents "very good.” Those scores are shown as 1 to 5 stars on the provider’s profile.

- October 22, 2022 Michael is by far the most gifted medical person I am seeing. He also has the genuine gift of communication that gives the patient the feeling of confidence that he will know how to treat almost any condition and aid the healing process. Michael is not arrogant and never comes across as an individual superior to others. When I need an answer to a questioning situation, Michael is the first person I consider calling or texting and he never fails to respond. If he doesn't have an answer he will admit it but sure enough, he will find out. Although Michael is a special physician, I find there are many like him at Wake Forest Baptist Medical groups and this is where I will continue to reach out for all my needs.
- October 22, 2022 Dr Michael Harris is always my first choice. So caring and concerned.
- October 17, 2022 Discussed my concern for weight gains. He listened to my concerns and recommended a specific prescription to aid in my possibly losing some weight. I failed to ask him, however, how much the cost would be. Found out my insurance does not cover this specific medication. Been trying to reach the office to discuss if Harris, PA-C could write a different prescription for weight loss to no avail. Sent question on myWakeHealth, but no response yet. Seems almost impossible to contact the office for a simple question. Must always go through main number at another location.
